Strawberries cherries and an angel's kiss in spring My summer wine is really made from all these things Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time And I will give to you summer wine Ohhh-oh summer wine
Whew, I'm showing my age on that one....OK, who here remembers Nancy Sinatra's version of that sone (no, The Corrs don't count)?
I was just thinking last night how much I enjoy a chilled glass of wine on a warm summer night. It feels so elegant and luxurious to savor a glass while sitting on my lanai in the evening. It's a pleasure that can be very expensive, but doesn't have to be. Here's the thing. Have you bought a GREAT bottle of wine, opened it and enjoyed a glass, but then the next time you went to have some it had turned to vinegar?
Polishing off a bottle in one sitting is probably the BEST way to assure that you'll be getting the best flavor, but if you do that often enough - I'll be sending you to AA. Most of you are like me and will POP THE CORK and enjoy a glass
